This morning several school districts cancelled classes due to black ice on the roads due to black ice on the tree shaded areas of the hills. Most others had a 2 hour delay. Some snow fell here or there depending what cloud you were under, The only hint of white on our home was in a lite frost on our cars.

Forecast for tomorrow is freezing temperature, more wind and depending on the amount in the atmosphere ... we may get some more snow.
Bob! Where ya been?? Missed you. Must have been lost in that blizzard.....
you got enough fixins there? like are you fixin to get out the shovel/plow/etc?
My parents left the show shovel / plow / etc. in Michigan when we left for Cal. back in 1952 and I have never used any of them since.

I might just have to stock up on them since the weather news reporters (ets ) are wearing many layers of coats, scarves, hats, and high snow boots while standing in ankle deep snow.

On Thanksgiving morning , I woke up with a bad cough , went to urgent care, was promptly kidnapped by an ambulance and transported to the hospital with pneumonia. After a 3 day stay , I was sent home with antibiotics, inhalers, and other assorted pills and potions. I was hospitalized 2 more times for 3 and 4 days each, the last time was last Tues. I am still coughing almost non-stop but slowly getting better. Ribs hurt non stop during waking hours... NOT FUN by any streatch of the imagination. But I lost 11 pounds ( 23 lbs in total ) in 2 days when the Dr.s finally prescribed a water loss medication IV and I felt much better right after that,

but I am still coughing like there is no tomorrow for how long is the question.
